Moose Creek Logging Tour: National Narrow Gauge Convention 2019

About the layout:
"Moose Creek Logging Company
The layout depicts an imagined 1930s logging operation, the Moose Creek Logging Company. The
activities and scenes are reminiscent of the activity one would typically see in western Washington
State, in the Snohomish, Skagit, and Whatcom county foot hills of the Cascades. We have focused on
details and foliage that one would encounter in the woodlands including the many types of animals,
from squirrels to Sasquatch!
The layout is On30 narrow gauge with a single main line, passing sidings and spurs. Individuals and
teams created sections running from the logging camp and spar tree along Moose Creek to the saw mill
and lumber yard. Along the line you can find a small logging town, a “forest fire”, line logging operation,
quarry, and Moose Creek scenes, with the logging operation, complete with spar tree, next to the
logging camp. We strive to operate the railroad as it would have been - including whistle signals,
multiple train operations, and passing at sidings as we transport the logs from the log yard at one end to
the saw mill at the other."

As a career faller, seeing pull wood & hinges on the logs & stumps makes me so stupidly happy! Such exciting details! Everything else looks awesome, too!

Happy 77th Birthday Calvin!
You don't have to celebrate birthdays consecutively, so next year you can celebrate your Sweet 16th Birthday, or your 23rd, or 35th! Whichever birthday you want! You can even celebrate the same birthday every year!

Beautiful layout, very nicely detailed and realistic. Good work "Moose" and nicely filmed Calvin, greetings from Sweden (another moose country).

Nice job!
Very well executed, this is something to be proud of.

These must be fun to build! When it tipped over by the fuel/water/? tank I think I saw a small break in the track; is that what caused the tip?

They can be a mix of fun & challenging but when you get it done and get to enjoy your hard work, it is well worth it. It was a stake that the camera bumped into, it was propped onto a logging car and overhung a little more than expected so that is why you see the camera bumped a few times. I somehow misplaced my square camera and have never found it since. It was helpful for layout videos like this, especially when clearances are bad!
